United Carlton Breweries. Durring the short time I was deployed to OZ I was luckly enough to sample Victoria Bitter, Melborne Bitter, and Red Back, the beer with the bite.

If you don't come back muddy and bloody, you didn't have a good time.
While in Chicago, I discovered a Russian beer and a Lithuanian ale, the names of neither of which I can pronounce. They have excellent flavor and body and are "high test". I haven't found them here yet, so I am sticking with Sam Adams until I do.

That's like picking out a favorite of my children, but we'll try to narrow it down.
Belgium white ales, Stouts, some IPA's, Porters, amber ales...yep, pretty much I just love beer

Now, like I've said before, my very favorite beer is someone elses, served really cold.

Derailment Spills 20,000 Gallons of Beer
CHILHOWIE, Va. - Fourteen cars of an 83-car Norfolk Southern train derailed near an industrial park, leaving the area smelling like a brewery Thursday.
About 20,000 gallons of beer leaked from three cars of the Roanoke-bound train, said railway spokesman Robin Chapman.
Sounds like you fowk are sae deprived because yae canna get the micro-beer we hae oot west. Port Townsend Brewery Scotch Ale for example. Or how aboot Boundary Bay Inside Passage India Pale Ale. Go west young loons and ye'll be spoiled fur anywhere else! - Vorlich
I'm not a big beer drinker, but may I add my two cents in here anyway? My favorite beer is the Pumpkinhead Ale from Salem Beer Works. I like the spices they add to it, but don't worry - it's just a hint of spice. Enough to make things interesting. Their website is: http://www.beerworks.net/html/menu_drink.html I think they have something in there for everyone!
My hubby says I'm most fond of Scottish Ales ( his term). He used to brew his own beer, and would make a batch of Scottish Ale for me whenever possible. He'd still like to brew, just hasn't found the time needed for it lately. I've given up buying perishable supplies for him, as they always seem to go bad before he can use them. It's something he always really enjoyed, so I'm hoping he'll get a chance to get back to it this winter. If he does, I'll let you all know what he brews and how it turns out. (Just to show you how keen he was on brewing, he was in the middle of a batch when I went into Labor with our eldest. He told the Doctor what he was doing, and they both decided he should finish before we left for the hospital!!)

I like pretty much any beer, I have to have it with salt in it. I also like dark beer. I picked up a bad habit in Mexico, now I like lime in my beer. STRANGE huh?
